Prominent grey markets in India like Delhi's Gaffar Market, Kolkata's Air-Conditioned Market and Fancy Market, Mumbai's Heera-Panna Market, etc have been flooded with inquiries for the Apple iPhone 6s just after the official announcement.

Some shopkeepers have also started taking pre-orders.

The Apple iPhone 6s is also available in Gold Rose and is hot property right now. Customers are even ready to pay a premium price for the new colour.

"The price will be around Rs 1 lakh initially, but it will come down after the company announces the official launch date. We have started getting inquiries," said a mobile store owner at Mumbai's Heera Panna Market while speaking to ET.

ET further reports that the average price for iPhones in the grey market will be between Rs 70,000 and Rs 80,000 for iPhone 6s and between Rs 80,000 and Rs 90,000 for iPhone 6s Plus.
